Hey everyone I am Ryan from Tyler, Tx I am a real Estate Photographer as-well as a freelance photographer in the custom automotive world, but being around real estate and listening to BP podcast has really lite a fire for me and my wife to want to invest in the Short Term rentals. our plan is to use our equity from our home now to pick up a Vacation rental in the smokies, we are in Texas so I really looked at Broken Bow, Ok originally but that market has sky rocketed in price way out of our budget. once we get the vacation home producing a income, we plan to do some fixing up to our townhome to turn it into a medium term rental for nurse and collage students since we are a 10/15 min drive from both here locally. for some of you veteran investors does this sound like a proper way of going about getting our foot in the door of our investing?
By the way if any of y'all invest in Texas our southern central regions ever need professional photos taken or your STR me and the wife love Free night stays just saying haha!
Hey there Ryan, I'm originally from Tyler (went to school I'm Winona). I'm a travel nurse and have seen several assignments in Tyler, so I think that's a great idea to do mid term rentals there. I have considered buying there myself since all the hospitals and colleges are pretty close to each other.
I also own a cabin out in the Smoky's, so feel free to ask any questions!
thank you so much Chris, What part of the smoky's is your cabin in? we travel there at least once a year already and have stayed in several in Maggie Valley,Nc and fell in move with that area!
Tyler is defiantly on a increase of Traffic, Costco just bought property here, there is a amazon plant being built off i20 I believe between Tyler and Longview so its slowly turning into a mini Metroplex lol. thank you so much ill be leaning on you for sure I appreciate it!!
